Do not create a Fanmade page at random. If there is little content to these pages or no indication of WIP or at least no hint of activity, they will be subject to deletion or moved to a proposed listing, see Policy/Page Layout and Creating a Fanmade Vocaloid if you need detailed help.

There are premade Starter layouts for a Character page and a Series type page. The option for them appears when a article is newly created and also the Preload bar is always present. If you don't know what it looks like see Announcement, New feature: Preload templates, for visual information.


 * If it gets to a point that you're disregarding the page policy and my messages to you about it then I will edit the page so that it follows the manual of style, if it continues this way I will view your activity as vandalism and will delete the page.


 * If you have suggestions or feedback about this then post in the Wiki Discussion forum. If you find the policies on this wiki too harsh, then please view the Main page's external links section and find another wiki of similar subject and attempt create articles there instead, thank you.


 * What a page requires
 * Template:Infobox/Character, must be present on all character pages, no matter how little information there is.
 * Template:Infobox/SeriesType, must be present on all series type pages, no matter how little information there is.
 * Template:Infobox/Fanon, must be present on all story type pages, no matter how little information there is. The exceptions are articles giving information commonly seen in the fandom such as Fandom Pairings and Derivative articles for example.
 * In relation to this you can create blog entries without following the fanon layout, it will be viewed as your personal article.
 * Formatting
 * You're allowed to " change, rearrange, delete "  the appearance of the Starter layout, however, a page must have some form of structure. That being the page's content is easy to follow and there are headers present to separate different subjects.
 * If you don't know how to format a page on a wiki then please, use the Sandbox and view the Content pages to practice.
 * Notice
 * If it turns out that a page is a joke with no effort put into it, then it will be viewed as spam and will be deleted.
 * And please, do not use official company names to read as if your Fanloid is created by said company. Instead make up a "mock" or "parody" name. You can name an official company if it is in the context that your Fanloid has a relationship with an official Vocaloid or your character makes a mention of it.
